Question

What is the novel 'To kill a mockingbird' about? and why do you like or dislike the book?

Answer 1

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is about a child coming of age in a small town, as well as Atticus trying to stand up for racial justice in their court system when an african american is tried for the rape of a Caucasian.

I liked the book because it was well written and gave good details about the characters, settings and views that people possessed, so much that I could actually visualize the Finch family in my head the whole time I was reading it.

Answer 2

Its about the life of a small family of three, and their day to day lives, as seen through the eyes of the girl. Its an amazing story, you have to read it, its very captivating. You can read a summary here, to know more about it.

Answer 3

it's moral is "do your own homework" why i didn't like it: wouldn't you like to know...

(edit) if this is not a homework question i'm sorry =D

Answer 4

It is about growing up in small town America during a time when prejudice and racism were the norm.  I like the book because it reminded me that all people deserve dignity and respect no matter what their situation in life, it reminded me to not judge people but to accept them for who they are, it reminded me that we can never truly understand others unless we have experienced what they have experienced, and it reminded me that there is good in everyone.
